[+] How do you repair a stage pin connector?
[+] This sort of repair is not usually possible with Edison connectors, particularly the factory-molded type.
[+] Is there anything else interesting in the article?
[+] If a connector is beyond repair, a new stage pin connector is often less expensive than a replacement Edison connector when purchased from local vendors.
[+] Are they the same?
[+] Though stage pin connectors are usually used in part to distinguish dimmed circuits from non-dimmed Edison circuits, newer theatrical installations may have several dimmed circuits that terminate in Edison outlets at various locations for convenience; thus care must be taken to avoid using these circuits for non-dimmable equipment.
[+] Can you tell me more about the difference?
[+] Connecting certain non-dimmable appliances or equipment to dimmed circuits may result in damage to the dimming equipment or the downstream device.
[+] Are there any other interesting aspects about this article?

Most modern stage pin connectors feature a ground pin that is longer than the line and neutral pins, ensuring that the ground connection is made first, and thus the safety ground is in place before line voltage is applied to the downstream equipment.
